stapephilia melts dark trippy flavours with synths and minimalism as we're used to love, and -yes- my friends, this new releases-cup couldn't start in a better way. a new life spring, for the angry casual listener but also for an open-minded xhaling lover; intelligent, as always. ethereal vocals and deep basses bring us in the bbeat hell, superb.

Suojain002 was originally released in 2001 by Suojain Records, consisting of two handmade cdr's made with love for all the friends of Suojain. The release was limited to 100 copies worldwide, but with requests for a copy coming even today, it was decided to put the album online for everyone to listen. The music on the album is electronic, but with a human touch and feeling. With styles varying from the ambient of CNCD to the drum & bass of Krii, from a ballad with a lush piano intro from...

We live in a town, where tristesse but also beauty is well known. And the soundtrack of this insight emotional world comes by Bad Comfort these day. It is November in 2008, the snow went down and is thawing now, but that's not relevant in the digital world. The Sounds go around the world, into warm and in the even...

Kant believed that what created the problem of ethical behavior is the duality of human nature. Since humans are both sensible and intellectual, and at the same time motivated by impulse, they must be guided by rules of conduct to balance the two. He believed that everyone could decide right and wrong based on the will behind the action, rather than the action itself. In deciding whether one's actions were moral, he said it should be considered what the universal benefit would be if everyone... ( 1 reviews ) Topics: tribal, techno Source: www.zimmer-records.org

Things have been slowing down a little at Monotonik HQ recently. We think it's something to do with just how crowded the netlabel scene has got - with literally thousands of labels, how is anyone going to find just one? Fortunately, we've got a good idea of how to do it - just release stellar track from awesome Monotonik stalwarts. And this method is getting kicked off via Beak's 'Hard Nights', the fourth release from the awesome guitar-electronics spaz on Monotonik since his epochal 2003... ( 1 reviews )

"I hope you realise, we're all naive cats." For Lukas Nystrand, themes of hope, faith, and belief frame the artistic field-of-view. And for the past couple of years, guided by these ideas and healthy imaginations of a better place, the notion of a new destination for all good hearts has emerged -- one inhabited by feline angels, a place known as Katthimmel, or Cat Heaven. For Lukas and fellow instrumentalist Karl Johansson, the Katthimmel EP is a resounding message of faith in such a... ( 2 reviews ) Topics: Improv, Improv

We first hooked up with shadowy U.S. artist Beak earlier in 2003, when he made an 'absolutely checken' appearance, providing us with a few choice tracks featuring his unconventional but beautiful twinning of multi-tracked acoustic guitars and harder electronics. But it's taken us until now to choose the absolutely perfect combination of sweet and savory songs from his extensive, largely publically unreleased output for the enchanting randomly titled 'Amoral Mayor Earwig EP'. So, where did we... ( 2 reviews ) Topic: Electronic

Recording under the guise of a dead president, East coast artist Abraham Lincoln bursts onto UrbanSprawl with an impressive self-produced album. While his sound veers towards the Definitive Jux school of underground hip-hop, he maintains a style all to his own. Combining a truly skilled lyrical flow with everything from 70s soul to Super Nintendo, Mr. Lincoln has created a release which will have us all on the edge of our seats to see what he comes up with next.

This compilation is our real toy. The idea to compile it was born even before the appearance of sutemos.net. But we had to make a long way, to create our own face, to gather contacts, to become interesting abroad. A more than year long work is finally finished and it is all hidden deep inside the intelligent toy. It was worth waiting. February 29th. The date - compilation was released ? is as rare and uncommon as the compilation is for us. Now we can boast that we gathered a bunch of IDM stars...

Inceptdate is the latest musical endeavor by Christopher Devoe, melodic in sound and experimental in rhythm. Dreamlike and abstract, the moods have both resonance and groove. Chris takes the platforms of hip-hop, and IDM and aggregates older influences of 70s jazz-fusion and soul music. He is most interested in experimental structures (or lack there of) that allow him to expand the possibilities of creating with sound. He begins by creating the skeleton of a song - sampling from records or... ( 2 reviews ) Topics: Lifeform Project, IDM Source: original recording for lifeformproject.com

Emmerichk's music is a wilful mix of sound carpets, clicks-and-cuts and rhythmical micro-structures. Many tracks also adress dancefloor audience as minimal an dub techno elements are involved in these songs. Emmerichk's Nebadon EP on Yuki Yaki offers Minimal House tunes with an edge. Crispy clicks and cuts garnish warm floating chords at cosy minor over a well composed layer of hypnotically pounding rhythms - never to fast to spoil the relaxed scenery. And it is a real pity that all delightful... ( 2 reviews ) Topics: Electronica, Electro, IDM, Minimal Techno Source: http://www.yukiyaki.org

"Just five years ago, Thomas Park took an interest in my ambient music efforts and invited me to participate in the Constant Series on his Treetrunk Records netlabel. http://treetrunkrecords.wordpress.com/ By way of providing some background and definition, a Constant is a longform, minimal drone that takes a less is more approach.

We gladly return to the gorgeously lush hunting-ground of ex-demo-sceners, with this sublime ambient release from the artist formerly known as Radix/TPOLM and additionally known as Rymdlego, Sinespree, and his pseudonym for this release, Mosaik. Originally from Sweden, but last heard of heading to Holland, his last two Monotonik releases (as Radix and Mosaik respectively) were sinetastic in the purest way.So, having caused at least a minor buzz on the idmlist with his confusing multiple...

Continuing in that obscure mood we started with this cup of releases, this Alloy definitely melts up in a mechanical environment emptiness and fullness at the same time. Big and blared kicks accompanied by distant piano loops together with full surrounding thunders leave space to more ethereal and airy pads; a broken, deep trip-hop piece is the result. The artist seems to care about his well-known capability of mastering different music styles, and with this release Darkhalo builds a cathedral... ( 4 reviews ) Topic: Experimental

Dighom produces drones and soundscapes, but no new age or elevator muzak. There is always a tension keeping your mind awake. It's very important to Dighom to turn into a mental constitution that permits that music plays the musician and not vice versa. His music would be unthinkable without a living spirituality, where music plays a main role. Don't be afraid: You don't need to convert to some suspicious pagan religion. The awareness of music as an existing intelligence, that is able to... ( 4 reviews ) Topic: Electronic

Troupe's first big ol' EP is finally here! Troupe has been releasing dandy music for quite a while now, especially once you fully realize that he's only a sixteen-year-old. Perhaps it is because, he lives in texas where there are music-enhancing cows and cacti, or maybe it's just because he hangs out with our friend xerxes so much. Whatever the case, he sure knows how to bring a relaxing melody that minimalistic oldschool touch. ( 4 reviews ) Topic: Electronica

Despite their fearsome and savage countenance, Wookiees are intelligent, sophisticated, loyal and trusting. Loyalty and bravery are near-sacred tenets in Wookiee society.

The wind is blowing from a very different direction with Phonocake's latest release: Disrupt transfers classic reggae music to contemporary media, thus producing reggae with the help of digital tools - laptop dub plates, so to speak. You could call the sounds developing from that mixture spherically electronic.
